Abstract:

The relationship between sensory profile and repetitive behaviours in autism spectrum disorder (ASD) has long been known. However, there is no consensus on the type of relationship that exists between them. This monocentric retrospective–prospective observational study aimed (a) to detect a clinical correlation between the severity of repetitive behaviours and the alterations of sensory profile in a sample of 50 children diagnosed with ASD; (b) to evaluate how different patterns of stereotypies and sensory alterations correlate with each other and with the main clinical–instrumental variables

Abstract:

The observations and tests under small scale in 1-gravity condition are intended to obtain a comparative behavior of a model and prototype of geotechnical case by imposing the scaling relations. Simulations to represent a related structure, sub-soil and failure mechanism need to be prepared prior to do observations in this modeling. To simulate pile loading test (PLT) on clay, the following models of: clay, pile, driving simulation and procedure of PLT based on ASTM D4410 were set-up. The PLT in reduced scale environment was then followed by performing normal practice of full scale PLT in orig

Using an acoustic telemetry positioning system, the fine-scale movements of spawning cod were observed in situ as they returned to the same spawning location over consecutive seasons.

Abstract. The assimilation of satellite-based water level observations (WLOs) into 2-D hydrodynamic models can keep flood forecasts on track or be used for reanalysis to obtain improved assessments of previous flood footprints. In either case, satellites provide spatially dense observation fields, but with spatially correlated errors. To date, assimilation methods in flood forecasting either incorrectly neglect the spatial correlation in the observation errors or, in the best of cases, deal with it by thinning methods. These thinning methods result in a sparse set of observations whose error c

Abstract:

Understanding of fire behaviour, especially fire spread, is mostly based on local-scale observations but the same equations are applied in global models on a much coarser scale. Most model formulations include the effect of wind speed with a positive influence on fire spread. Availability of global datasets offers new possibilities to evaluate these approaches based on local-scale observations at the global scale. Here, we analyse the relation between wind speed derived from three datasets and remotely sensed burned fraction (burned area divided by grid cell area) on a climate model grid scale

In studying the case of jack mackerel in detail, we used data from three acoustic surveys carried out in central Chile in 1997, 1998, and 1999. In terms of spatial occupation, ja

There are many sources of bias and error in self-reports of pain, so ratings need to be interpreted in light of information from other sources such as direct observation of behaviour, knowledge of the circumstances of the pain and parents’ reports.

Abstract:

We study the contact process on a class of evolving scale-free networks, where each node updates its connections at independent random times. We give a rigorous mathematical proof that there is a transition between a phase where for all infection rates the infection survives for a long time, at least exponential in the network size, and a phase where for sufficiently small infection rates extinction occurs quickly, at most polynomially in the network size. The phase transition occurs when the power-law exponent crosses the value four. This behaviour is in contrast with that of the contact proc

Abstract:

AbstractMeasurements of the streamwise component of the turbulent fluctuations in fully developed smooth and rough pipe flow are presented over an unprecedented Reynolds number range. For Reynolds numbers$R{e}_{\tau } \gt 20\hspace{0.167em} 000$, the streamwise Reynolds stress closely follows the scaling of the mean velocity profile, independent of the roughness, and over the same spatial extent. This observation extends the findings of a logarithmic law in the turbulence fluctuations as reported by Hultmark, Vallikivi & Smits (Phys. Rev. Lett., vol. 108, 2012) to include rough flows. The

Abstract:

SUMMARYTrophically-transmitted parasites frequently alter multiple aspects of their host's phenotype. Correlations between modified characteristics may suggest how different traits are mechanistically related, but these potential relationships remain unexplored. We recorded 5 traits from individual isopods infected with an acanthocephalan (Acanthocephalus lucii): hiding, activity, substrate colour preference, body (pereon) coloration, and abdominal (pleon) coloration. Infected isopods hid less and had darker abdominal coloration than uninfected isopods. However, in 3 different experiments meas

Abstract:

We present a simple model for the underlying structure of protein–protein pairwise interaction graphs that is based on the way in which proteins attach to each other in experiments such as yeast two-hybrid assays. We show that data on the interactions of human proteins lend support to this model. The frequency of the number of connections per protein under this model does not follow a power law, in contrast to the reported behaviour of data from large-scale yeast two-hybrid screens of yeast protein–protein interactions.

Abstract:

This study aims to develop a fundamental understanding of the role of fine particles on the small-strain stiffness of gap-graded granular soils. Stiffness was measured using cyclic triaxial probes, which give a measure of static stiffness, and dynamic wave propagation data, from which the dynamic stiffness can be measured. Assemblies of loosely packed spherical particles were considered. In the laboratory, local deformation transducers were used to measure the static stiffness, while the dynamic stiffness was calculated from stress wave velocities, measured using planar piezoelectric elements.

Abstract:

This paper discusses the effects of non-uniform, random particle distribution on damage initiation and growth, leading to short cracks and breakage of particle reinforced composite specimens. A multi-scale technique was employed to model and simulate damage. Damage was described at the constituent material level (i.e. micro-level) and the results were compared qualitatively and quantitatively with experimental observation. Both results agreed well. Non-uniform, random particle distribution yielded sporadic crack initiation and growth within a uniform tensile specimen. No local crack propagated

Abstract:

Diffusion in biological membranes is seldom simply Brownian motion; instead, the rate of diffusion is dependent on the time scale of observation and so is often described as anomalous. In order to help better understand this phenomenon, model systems are needed where the anomalous diffusion of the lipid bilayer can be tuned and quantified. We recently demonstrated one such model by controlling the excluded area fraction in supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) through the incorporation of lipids derivatized with polyethylene glycol. Here, we extend this work, using urea to induce anomalous diffusion

Previous work has shown that the scaling of mechanical behaviour in bending of the metathoracic tibiae of the African desert locust (Schistocerca gregaria) is not predicted by the scaling of external dimensions. The flexural stiffness of the tibia scales to (body mass)1.53, which is similar to the predictions of the elastic similarity model of scaling. The external dimensions, however, scale in a manner that produces relatively more elongate limb segments &shy; an observation that differs from the predictions of any existing scaling model.

Abstract:

The precipitation behaviour of the Fe20Co18W (wt%) alloy was studied by transmission electron microscopy during aging treatments at 800°C. The decomposition of the matrix produces the C14 phase. At the beginning of the heat treatment, the observation at the atom scale indicates that the structure of the precipitates does not coincide exactly with the Laves phase. Using the orientation relationship between the Fe based matrix and the precipitates it is shown that simple atomic shifts can lead to the transformation from the bcc matrix to the C14 Laves phase.
